It’s almost nostalgic, for the wrong reasons. It came upon me a few minutes ago to realize this. They go parallel with eachother that 20 years ago, people had the same exact defeatist reaction when George W Bush got re-elected when people thought he wouldn’t.
Now, 20 years later, when people thought Trump wouldn’t get elected again, here we are.
I don’t recall George Bush attempting to cause an overthrow of the US government before.
I don’t remember George W. Bush winning
Elected, but they didn’t say who elected him.
The Supreme Court when they decided to stop the Florida recount and just let Bush be president.
He wasn’t elected; he was appointed.
Reminder that 50% of people are below average intelligence, and the U.S. specifically rates 29th in the world in intelligence.
less poetic, more tragic
we’re going back to jim crow era with mobs lynching people
there are reports of neo nazi groups already marching in the streets, emboldened by trumps win
this is a very dark time
No.
The parallel is with not having great choices against him, as well as an established GOP who could pull the votes when they need them. Outside of that, the problems and crimes, and the level of insanity were different.
What about Reagan? Same parallel of weak opposition, for a much longer time since Bush followed, and Clinton was more centrist. Perhaps that’s a start of the movement to the center.
Yeah, Democrats have no pipeline to generate top talent. Their last candidate got trounced in the last primary she attended. Democrats didn’t even want her. They got a wake up call in 2016 and failed to fix the problem, they need to take the call this time and fix it.
I bet five year olds can make better poetry
people thought Trump wouldn’t get elected again
A lot of knew that he would get elected again but Democrats kept punching left and told us to shut the fuck up and vote for their neoliberal. In 2028 they will repeat the same mistakes they made in 2024, 2020 and 2016 And are shocked that the results came out the same.
According to Trump, we won’t have elections again.
He says a lot of bullshit things like Biden did, And all piece of shit politicians before them
